Firstly, that cover is amazing lol, why wasn't there a story based on that
Anyway, this was an okay anthology for me. There were a few stories that, in my opinion were not erotic at all.
However, there were maybe 5 or 6 stories that I really enjoyed.
I thought 'The Middle Leg' was great. 'The Mummy's Curves' was spooky but also kind of hilarious. 'Prenuptials' was so well written.
Also there was some really good artwork before each story which i enjoyed.
Although there were things I enjoyed about this, i still found it overall to be quite bland.
Still would say I had fun though.

Disclaimer: I am a contributor to this anthology. However, this review is based on the other works included.
In terms of content, "Of Devils and Deviants" is exactly what the title suggests, an anthology of devilish and arousing fiction. These tales explore what it is that turns us on, even if we don't want to admit it ourselves. I must warn you that several are profoundly disturbing and may cause you to question everything you think you know about the human being. "Date Night" and "Martin" are two such tales. Others are just plain disgusting, in a sexy kind of way... if that makes any sense; "The Gift of Infidelity" and "Le Petit Mort" will show you what I mean. Many of the tales are so erotic and oozing with you-know-what that they will get you so excited you'll feel like exploding; gentlemen, put some comfortable trousers on before reading "Courbet and DeSade Share Secrets in Hell" and "The Green Man". Others are poetic, philosophical, and even romantic, such as the "Mask", "Camelot" and "The Devil: A Love Story". Every single one of the stories in this anthology makes for a steamy read.
Editors Adam and Zoe-Ray Millard have also done an amazing job of editing and formatting the anthology. The design and internal illustrations that accompany each tale are perfect and I only noticed about three typos, which is exceptionally low for any publication.
If you like stories that make you shiver with both fear and arousal and leave you begging for more, this anthology is for you.
